Title: Suction-assisted tissue engagement through a minimally invasive incision
Inventor: STEINBERG WILLIAM A
IPC: A61B19/00
Filed: 2003-11-05
Abstract: Suction-assisted tissue-engaging devices, systems, and methods are disclosed that can be employed through minimal surgical incisions to engage tissue during a medical procedure through application of suction to the tissue through a suction member applied to the tissue. A shaft is introduced into a body cavity through a first incision, and a suction head is attached to the shaft via a second incision. The suction head is applied against the tissue by manipulation of the shaft and suction is applied to engage the tissue while the medical procedure is performed through the second incision. A system coupled to the shaft and a fixed reference point stabilizes the shaft and suction head. When the medical procedure is completed, suction is discontinued, the suction head is detached from the shaft and withdrawn from the body cavity through the second incision, and the shaft is retracted through the first incision.

Title: Applier for fastener for single lumen access anastomosis
Inventor: ORTIZ MARK S
IPC: A61B19/00
Filed: 2004-09-30
Abstract: Creating an anastomosis, or the surgical formation of a passage between two normally distinct vessels or lumens, is enhanced by an applier (10) that introduces a ring device without the need for a separate anvil to form a hollow rivet shaped attachment. Moreover, the ring device may be advantageously formed in a cylindrical shape from molded polymer material or stamped from sheet metal with proximal and distal rings connected by proximal and distal arms that respectively form hinged, ring shaped so appose tissue walls. A center ring or portion sits in the attachment site. The applier causes actuating by moving the rings relative to one another. A latching mechanism locks the rings in the actuating state. <IMAGE>

Title: Selective detector for carbon monoxide
Inventor: MAXIMILIAN FLEISCHER
IPC: G01N27/414
Filed: 2010-03-30
Abstract: The invention relates to a FET-based detector for carbon monoxide that is based on two sensitive layers (7, 8). The first of said sensitive layers (8) is catalytically active and thus react equally to alcohols, particularly ethanol, and carbon monoxide. The second of said sensitive layers (7) is not catalytically active and thus does not react to carbon monoxide, rather only to ethanol. From the comparison of the signals of both layers, the concentration of carbon monoxide can be determined. The two sensitive layers are implemented via similar metal oxide layers, wherein there is an additional layer having a catalyst such as palladium for the catalytically active layer. Alternatively, two different layers can be used, one of which is already catalytically active without an additional layer.
